The Classical LinearModel

Homoscedastic Error Variances

For the visualization of homocedastic and hetercedastic variance, we simulate:

\[ y \sim N \left ( -1 + 2x, 1 \right ) \]

The funnel-shaped heterocedasticy is simulated using:

\[ y \sim N \left ( -1 + 2x, \left ( 0.1 + 0.3 \left ( x + 3 \right ) \right )^{2} \right ) \]

par(mfrow = c(2, 2))

# Homecedastic variance
X <- seq(-2, 2, length.out = 300)

homecedastic_random <- function (x){
  rnorm(1, mean = -1 + 2 * x,  sd = 1)[1]
}

homo_y <- sapply(X, homecedastic_random)
homo_e <- (-1 + 2 * X) - homo_y

plot(X, homo_y, xlab='', ylab='', main='homocedastic variance')
abline(-1, 2, col = "red", lwd=2)
plot(X, homo_e, xlab='', ylab='', main='homocedastic variance errors')
abline(0, 0, col = "red", lwd=2)

heterocedastic_random <- function (x){
  rnorm(1, mean = -1 + 2 * x, sd = 0.1 + 0.3 * (x + 3))[1]
}

hetero_y <- sapply(X, heterocedastic_random)
hetero_e <- (-1 + 2 * X) - hetero_y

plot(X, hetero_y, xlab='', ylab='', main='funnel-shaped heterocedastic variance')
abline(-1, 2, col = "red", lwd=2)

Uncorrelated Errors

Simulated autocorrelated errors with positive correlation are generated using:

\[ y_{i} = -1 + 2 x_{i} + \epsilon_{i} \] \[ \text{Where } \epsilon_{i} = 0.9 \epsilon_{i - 1} + \mu_{i} \wedge \mu_{i} \sim N(0, 0.5^{2}) \]

par(mfrow = c(1, 2))

n <- 100
X <- seq(-3, 3, length.out = n)
mu <- rnorm(n, mean = 0, sd = 0.5)

epsilon <- mu[1]
for(i in seq(2, n)){
  epsilon <- c(epsilon, 0.9 * epsilon[i - 1] + mu[i])
}

y_pred <- -1 + 2 * X + epsilon

plot(X, y_pred, xlab = 'x', ylab = '', main = 'observations and regression line')
abline(-1, 2, col = "red", lwd = 2)

plot(epsilon, xlab = 'i', ylab = '', main = 'time series of the errors')
abline(0, 0, col = "red", lwd = 2)

Simulated autocorrelated errors with negative correlation are generated using:

\[ y_{i} = -1 + 2 x_{i} + \epsilon_{i} \] \[ \text{Where } \epsilon_{i} = - 0.9 \epsilon_{i - 1} + \mu_{i} \wedge \mu_{i} \sim N(0, 0.5^{2}) \]

par(mfrow = c(1, 2))

n <- 100
X <- seq(-3, 3, length.out = n)
mu <- rnorm(n, mean = 0, sd = 0.5)

epsilon <- mu[1]
for(i in seq(2, n)){
  epsilon <- c(epsilon, -0.9 * epsilon[i - 1] + mu[i])
}

y_pred <- -1 + 2 * X + epsilon

abline(-1, 2, col = "red", lwd = 2)

plot(epsilon, xlab = 'i', ylab = '', main = 'time series of the errors')
abline(0, 0, col = "red", lwd = 2)

Mispecified model is simulated using:

\[ y_{i} = \sin(x_{i}) + x_{i} + \epsilon_{i} \] \[ \text{Where } \epsilon_{i} \sim N(0, 0.3^{2}) \]

par(mfrow = c(2, 2))

n <- 100
X <- seq(-3, 3, length.out = n)
epsilon <- rnorm(n, mean = 0, sd = 0.3)

y <- sin(X) + X + epsilon

plot(X, y, xlab = '', ylab = '', main = 'observations and true function')
lines(X, sin(X) + X, col = "red", lwd = 2)

linear_model <- lm(y ~ X)

plot(X, y, xlab = '', ylab = '', main = 'observations and regression line')
abline(linear_model, col = "red", lwd = 2)

y_pred <- predict(linear_model, data = X)
res <- y_pred - y
plot(X, res, xlab = '', ylab = '', main = 'residuals')
abline(0, 0, col = "red", lwd = 2)

Additivity of Errors

We simulate data using:

\[ y_{i} = \exp(1 + x_{i1} - x_{i2} + \epsilon_{i}) \]

With: \[ \epsilon_{i} \sim N \left ( 0, {0.4}^{2} \right ) \]

We plot this model:

par(mfrow = c(2, 2))

n <- 50

x1 <- seq(0, 3, length.out = n)
x2 <- seq(0, 3, length.out = n)
x_grid <- expand.grid(x1 = x1, x2 = x2)
epsilon <- rnorm(n^2, mean = 0, sd = 0.4)
y <- exp(1 + x_grid$x1 - x_grid$x2 + epsilon)

plot(
  x_grid$x1, y,
  main = 'scatter plot: y versus x1',
  xlab = 'x1',
  ylab = 'y'
)
plot(
  x_grid$x2, y,
  main = 'scatter plot: y versus x2',
  xlab = 'x2',
  ylab = 'y'
)

plot(
  x_grid$x1, log(y),
  main = 'scatter plot: log(y) versus x1',
  xlab = 'x1',
  ylab = 'log(y)'

plot(
  x_grid$x2, log(y),
  main = 'scatter plot: log(y) versus x2',
  xlab = 'x2',
  ylab = 'log(y)'

Example 3.3 Munich Rent Index — Variable Transformation

Importing data using script:

source("import_data/munich_rent_index.R")

We do the regression model:

\[ \text{rentsqm}_{i} = \beta_{0} + \beta_{1} \cdot f(\text{area}_{i}) + \epsilon_{i} \]

With both \(f(\cdot)\):

\[ f(\text{area}_{i}) = \text{area}_{i} \]

For linear model and:

\[ f(\text{area}_{i}) = \frac{1}{\text{area}_{i}} \]

For future use we define those models:

Model 1 (\(M1\)):

\[ \mathbb{E}(\text{rentqsm}) = \beta_{0} + \beta_{1} \text{area} \]

Model 2 (\(M2\)):

\[ \mathbb{E}(\text{rentqsm}) = \beta_{0} + \beta_{1} \frac{1}{\text{area}} \]

For nonlinear relationship between \(\text{rentsqm}\) and \(\text{area}\). The plotted graph below are those two models with the left panels the linear regression without the transformation and the right panels with the inverse transformation.

\[ \hat{\epsilon}_{\text{area}, i} = \text{rentsqm}_{i} - \hat{\beta_{0}} - \hat{f}_{2}(\text{yearc}_{i}) \]

With the effect \(f(\text{yearc}_{i})\):

\[ \hat{f}_{2}(\text{yearc}) = \beta_{2} \cdot \text{yearc}_{i} + \beta_{3} \cdot {\text{yearc}_{i}}^{2} + \beta_{4} \cdot {\text{yearc}_{i}}^{3} \]

And:

\[ \hat{\epsilon}_{\text{yearc}, i} = \text{rentsqm}_{i} - \hat{\beta_{0}} - \hat{f}_{1}(\text{area}_{i}) \]

With the effect \(f(\text{yearc}_{i})\):

\[ \hat{f}_{1}(\text{yearc}) = \beta_{1} \cdot \frac{1}{\text{area}_{i}} \]

Example 3.6 Munich Rent Index — Effect Coding

We adjust the regression model with the coding values of location:

Example 3.8 Munich Rent Index — Interaction Between Living Area and Location

The model to adjust ius defined as:

We use the dataset for average or top location only and change the dummy variable \(\text{tlocation}\) to \(0\) (average) and \(1\) (top). Finally, we visualize the effect as described in the book.

Example 3.9 Orthogonal Design

Just for exemplify, we define the orthogonal process describe as an R function:

\[ \tilde{x}^{j} = x^{j} - \widetilde{X}_{j} \left ( {\widetilde{X}_{j}}^{T} \widetilde{X}_{j} \right )^{-1} {\widetilde{X}_{j}}^{T} x^{j} \]

orthogonal_design <- function(x){
  x_out <- cbind(x[, 1] - mean(x[, 1]), matrix(0, nrow = nrow(x), ncol = ncol(x) - 1))
  for (i in 2:ncol(x)){
    x_hat <- as.matrix(x_out[, 1:(i-1)])
    x_inv <- solve(t(x_hat) %*% x_hat)
    x_out[, i] <- x[, i] - x_hat %*% x_inv %*% t(x_hat) %*% x[, i]
  }
  x_out
}

We test this function on the polynomial of the \(\text{yearc}\) variable:

poly_test <- poly(munich_rent_index$yearc, 3, raw = TRUE)
orthogonal_test <- orthogonal_design(poly_test)

# And check it
c(
  orthogonal_test[, 1] %*% orthogonal_test[, 2],
  orthogonal_test[, 2] %*% orthogonal_test[, 3],
  orthogonal_test[, 1] %*% orthogonal_test[, 3]
)

Example 3.11 Simple Linear Regression

For the model:

\[ y_{i} = \beta x_{i} + \epsilon_{i} \]

We can verify:

\[ \left ( {X_{n}}^{T} X_{n} \right )^{-1} \to 0 \]

And:

\[ \max_{i=1,...,n} {x_{i}}^{T} \left ( {X_{n}}^{T} X_{n} \right )^{-1} x_{i} \to 0 \text{ for } n \to \infty \]

\(x_{i} = i\):

\[ \left ( {X_{n}}^{T} X_{n} \right )^{-1} = \left ( (1, 2, 3, \cdots, n) \left ( \begin{matrix} 1 \\ 2 \\ \vdots \\ n \end{matrix} \right ) \right )^{-1} = \left ( 1 + 4 + \cdots + n^2 \right )^{-1} \to 0 \]

And:

\[ \max_{i=1,...,n} ( 1, 2, \cdots, n ) \left ( 1 + 4 + \cdots + n^2 \right )^{-1} \left ( \begin{matrix} 1 \\ 2 \\ \vdots \\ n \end{matrix} \right ) \to 0 \text{ for } n \to \infty \]

\(x_{i} = \frac{1}{i}\):

\(x_{i} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{i}}\):

Example 3.12 Munich Rent Index — Hypothesis Testing

The regression model to adjust is:

\[ \begin{matrix} \text{rentsqm}_{i} = & \beta_{0} + \beta_{1} \text{areainvc}_{i} + \beta_{2} \text{yearco}_{i} + \beta_{3} \text{yearco2}_{i} + \beta_{4} \text{yearco3}_{i} \\ & + \beta_{5} \text{nkitchen}_{i} + \beta_{6} \text{pkitchen}_{i} + \beta_{7} \text{year01}_{i} + \epsilon_{i} \end{matrix} \]

hypothesis_model <- lm(
  rentsqm_euro ~ areainvc + yearco + yearco2 + yearco3 + nkitchen + pkitchen + year01,
  data = munich_rent_index_01
)
summary(hypothesis_model)

    nkitchen + pkitchen + year01, data = munich_rent_index_01)

So we want to test the hypothesis:

\[ \begin{matrix} H_{0} : \beta_{7} = 0 & \text{against} & H_{1} : \beta_{7} \neq 0 \end{matrix} \]

About the significance of the follow-up measure.

\[ \begin{matrix} H_{0} : \left ( \begin{matrix} \beta_{5} \\ \beta_{6} \end{matrix} \right ) = \left ( \begin{matrix} 0 \\ 0 \end{matrix} \right ) & \text{against} & H_{1} : \left ( \begin{matrix} \beta_{5} \\ \beta_{6} \end{matrix} \right ) \neq \left ( \begin{matrix} 0 \\ 0 \end{matrix} \right ) \end{matrix} \]

About the significance of the kitchen variable. And a final test about the significance of differentiate between these two type of kitchens:

\[ \begin{matrix} H_{0} : \beta_{5} - \beta_{6} = 0 & \text{against} & H_{1} : \beta_{5} - \beta_{6} \neq 0 \end{matrix} \]

Example 3.13 Munich Rent Index — Standard Output and Hypothesis Tests

For the first test (\(H_{0} : \beta_{7} = 0\)), we calculate:

\[ t_{7} = \frac{\hat{\beta}_{7}}{{\widehat{\text{Var}(\hat{\beta}_{7})}}^{1/2}} \sim t_{1 - \alpha / 2} (n - p) \]

We check the \(\text{Var}(\hat{\beta}_{7})\) is the last value.

var_7 <- cov_matrix[8, 8]
t_7 <- hypothesis_model$coefficients[8] / sqrt(var_7)
t_7

   year01 
-2.981496 

And this coincides with the value given in the summary.

For the second test, we compute the \(F\) value as:

\[ F = \frac{1}{r} {\hat{\beta}}^{T} \widehat{\text{Cov} \left ( \hat{\beta} \right )}^{-1} \hat{\beta} \sim F_{1, n - p} \]

With the \(\hat{\beta}\) define in the test \(\left ( \begin{matrix} \hat{\beta_{5}} \\ \hat{\beta_{6}} \end{matrix} \right )\), then \(r=2\) and \(n - p = n - 8\):

df <- nrow(munich_rent_index_01) - 8
r <- 2
beta_hat <- as.matrix(hypothesis_model$coefficients[6:7])
f_56 <- (1/2) * t(beta_hat) %*% solve(cov_matrix[6:7, 6:7]) %*% beta_hat
f_56

         [,1]
[1,] 82.08307

We get expected \(F\):

f_crit <- qf(p = 0.95, r, df)
f_crit

[1] 2.9977

And we reject the null hypothesis.

The third and final test comparing \(\beta_{5}\) and \(\beta_{6}\) between each other. We need:

\[ \widehat{\text{Var}(\hat{\beta}_{5} - \hat{\beta}_{6})} = \widehat{\text{Var}(\hat{\beta}_{5})} + \widehat{\text{Var}(\hat{\beta}_{6})} - 2 \cdot \widehat{\text{Cov}(\hat{\beta}_{5}, \hat{\beta}_{6})} \]

Using the \(\widehat{\text{Cov}(\hat{\beta})}\) matrix:

cov_5_6 <- cov_matrix[6, 7]
var_5 <- cov_matrix[6, 6]
var_6 <- cov_matrix[7, 7]
var_5_6 <- var_5 + var_6 - 2 * cov_5_6
f_5_6 <- (hypothesis_model$coefficients[6] - hypothesis_model$coefficients[7])^2 / var_5_6
f_5_6

nkitchen 
 2.18071 

And this \(F\) critical, using \(r=1\):

f_crit <- qf(p = 0.95, 1, df)
f_crit

[1] 3.843498

So, in this case, we do not reject the null hypothesis.

Example 3.14 Munich Rent Index — Confidence Intervals

The confidence interval for \(\beta_{7}\) is obtain using:

\[ \beta_{7} \pm t_{n - p} \left (1 - \alpha / 2 \right ) \cdot \widehat{\text{Var}(\hat{\beta}_{7})}^{1/2} \]

inter <- qt(1 - 0.05 / 2, df) * sqrt(var_7)
c(hypothesis_model$coefficients[8] - inter, hypothesis_model$coefficients[8] + inter)

    year01     year01 
-0.3070414 -0.0634347 

Example 3.15 Munich Rent Index — Prediction Intervals

Using the prediction interval:

\[ {x_{0}}^{T} \cdot \hat{\beta} \pm t_{n-p}(1 - \alpha / 2) \hat{\sigma} \left ( 1 + {x_{0}}^{T} \left (X^{T} X \right )^{1} x_{0} \right )^{1/2} \]

We can obtain the \(\hat{\sigma}\) directly from the model or using:

\[ (n - p) \hat{\sigma}^2 = \epsilon^{T} \epsilon \]

sigma_model <- summary(hypothesis_model)$sigma
sigma_2 <- t(as.matrix(hypothesis_model$residuals)) %*% as.matrix(hypothesis_model$residuals) / (nrow(munich_rent_index_01) - 8)
sigma <- sqrt(sigma_2)
c(sigma_model, sigma)

[1] 1.964112 1.964112

We are also going to use the design matrix:

design_matrix <- as.matrix(hypothesis_model$model)
design_matrix[, 1] <- 1
colnames(design_matrix)[1] <- "1"
head(design_matrix)
